Prince Herod’s POV again “Hey, you did come!” I heard the voice from yesterday again in the darkness, it sounded surprised, as if she had expected me not to show up. I just arrived seconds ago, so she must have been waiting for me already. “Of course, I am a man of words,” I replied. "Were you under the impression otherwise?" She chuckled, the relief in her voice clearly audible.“I didn't know what to expect. But I'm excited to see you.” "I am pleased to hear that. Will you reveal yourself today? Then we can find a nice place to eat. I skipped dinner at the packhouse and now, I'm starving." This sentence should do it, today I need confirmation that it is indeed Arbel whom I am dealing with here.In addition, progress needs to be made with this, if they lack nutrition it could well be that the firstborn is also starving. He needs to be rescued quickly, Harad is also starting to get restless. This morning
Again Prince Herod’s POV 'Herod, how are things going? Has she mentioned anything about Xanne and the pup yet?'Harad's impatience makes it impossible for him to suppress his curiosity regarding the status of our plan to extract information from Arbel. We hope that she will divulge clues about where we should begin searching for the elusive hybrid Princess. 'I need you to be patient. I can't push too hard," I cautioned him, "She's not the brightest. Give me some time to get her over the line. In any case, she has already let me know where her aspirations lie.’ 'Aspirations?' he snarled. ‘Man, this woman is going straight to the darkest cells in the Kingdom and never sees the light of day again. Criminals have no business with aspirations!’ I could barely contain my amusement, he didn't know yet what he would hear soon. Prison was exactly not where Arbel thought to spend her life. 'Just wait till you hear this!’ I chuckled. ‘She's vying
Prince Harad’s POV'Harad, get ready. The third metallic plate at the Seal. Only the firstborn, Xanne and Arbel are there.'That's the sign I've been waiting for all evening with my heart pounding. And now my actions must be calculated, nothing can go wrong in this rescue operation. Before anything else, I must inform Alpha Remus and select a team of our top warriors. But Xanne continues to be my primary worry.Her witchcraft can create unforeseen circumstances, werewolves, Lycans included, can not withstand the powers of witches. This is something I need to find a solution for and quickly. Hastily, I make my way towards Alpha Remus's office where he is still busy coordinating the global search party with top strategists from our species. "We have found them, Alpha Remus!"As I spoke, the entire room fell silent and stared at me with jaws on the floor. Twelve pairs of large wolf eyes fixed on me as hope and joy appeared in each one.
Still Prince Harad’s POVMy eyes go wide as saucers when I hear the condition of the warlocks.This is unacceptable!Xanne, in exchange for assistance in retrieving the little Crown Prince, is a request that I absolutely cannot fulfill.Whatever happens, I must bring Xanne back to the Palace alive, otherwise I will have to face the consequences. And believe me, I have no ambition to become mateless! ‘I could tell you in advance that those warlocks would be nothing but trouble, human!’ Xan growled in my mind now. ‘I'm ready to do this job all by myself, we don't need the warlocks. Waiting for them is just a delay, and who knows what the little one is going through? Herod already said that it seems like they are short of food. They're probably starving him!' ‘Xan, please. I wish you could just think for a moment,’ I begged him. ‘If we give Xanne to the warlocks and arrive at the Palace without her, we'll have to answer Cissy's questions. She will blame us for not taking into account Xa
Prince Harad’s POV AgainIf the situation wasn't so dire, I would have joyfully observed the soap unfolding before me for hours. As if burned, Walter pulled his hand away from Xanne's neck and stared at the frightening display of magic in terror. The flames, which were growing stronger by the minute, seemed to be intended to scare us off - we were meant to flee for our lives. But Surprisingly, we were completely unaffected by the heat, it felt akin to observing a magnificent fireworks display during an end of the year festivity. Herod and the Alpha watched it all with amusement with their hands on their sides. "Only now the show is about to start,” chuckled the Alpha next to me. “I hope my Luna doesn't forget to entertain us a little.”As I directed my gaze towards Luna Faith, she once again shifted and became the stunning White Wolf, adorned with a dazzling ring of gold that encircled one eye. Sara tried to stand on her
Alpha Female Ciciane’s POVStanding on my toes, I impatiently wait for the Jet to arrive.Today, it seems to take a lot more time to fly between Silver Bow and the Kingdom. My firstborn is arriving, I can't wait to finally hold my son in my arms and tell him how much I love him. I wonder how I managed to live without him all this time, he is the loss in my family. Although I have completely forgiven Doron, I still cannot imagine that she could have deceived me like that during the birth. At the time, my lack of experience and extreme exhaustion made it easy for her to conceal the third pup's cries. But now everything is fine, my son will be showered with an abundance of motherly love that he will not know what is happening to him. To be honest, I am still in disbelief that this has happened to me.Reading about the theft of pups in fictional novels always seemed too exaggerated and cheesy to me. However, being confronted with it in real
Prince Harad’s POV Cissy has a firm grasp on her firstborn, there is no way she will give him back to me.As she whispers all kinds of sweet nothings to him, he stares at her as if he understands every word that comes out of his mother's mouth. Every now and then he offers her an affectionate smile, swelling his mother's heart with joy. When I look around, I observe that the King has substantially enhanced our security measures.Despite having already captured Xanne and Arbel, no chances are being taken. An ominous line of SUVs with the most skilled Lycan fighters is standing by an advanced armored vehicle fitted with modern digital security tech. We all climb into the waiting luxurious limousine.Luna Faith takes one of the boys from me, so I have an arm free to put over Cissy's shoulders. I know she wants to make up for lost time with the firstborn, feeling like she has let him down in comparison with his siblings. Cal
Again Prince Harad’s POV “Father, we have to go to the Sages,” I pointed out to the King. “I wanted to handle this situation on my own and spare you any unnecessary drama, but in my wildest dreams, I couldn't imagine Xanne would go so far as kidnapping my son. Sage Nicolas alerted me earlier about a hybrid Princess who would try infiltrating the Royal family and make an impact.” On hearing this, an unmatched anger appeared on the King's face. His entire face turned red up to his ears and his hands trembled slightly. He gazed at me with wide eyes in speechless disbelief for a moment. “And why am I just finding out about this now?!” he bellowed. “And we allowed her into the Palace and put the future Queen and her pups at risk! Are you brain-dead, Harad? Couldn't you have foreseen what could happen?" Alpha Remus placed a hand on his shoulders as my mother rushed to wrap her arms around his neck. Herod came to stand next to me, perhaps sca
